[WSIS CS-Plenary] Plenary: Reporting and discussion

[conchita poncini]

Dear All,

I  agree with Keren.

May I suggest that the present CS-plenary email list be limited to reporting of what actually happened at the 2 Subcommittees and what follow-up action would be needed - of interest to those who cannot be present at the meetings but would like to be informed for future participation in Tunis to have as a basis of a strategic vision for future follow-up implementation and monitoring.

Discussions on methods of work and procedures should have a separare email for those who are actually present in Prepcom and may want to react or contriute.

In other words, the first is for consumers and the second is for producers. 

Thanks,

Conchita

  Betrand- I assume this means the separate list would merely be like a newsletter of what happened as opposed to drafts of documents to be discussed, as I seem to have misunderstood from Karen's email. If this could be clarified, and also the purposes of both lists, this will be most helpful.

  I support Karen's proposal, even if Richard's comment is of course true.

    Dear friends,

    A new list may be possible, as Karen suggests.  Another approach, however, may be for those not directly interested to simply change their subscription options to the once a day digest version.  That too would reduce the frequency of messages.  Just a thought...

    dear all,

    I've had quite a few people unsubscribe from the plenary list, who are not 
    in geneva - not because they are not interested in following the process,
    but because the volume of the list is simply too high.

    This always happens during prepcom as we use the list intensively for
    discussions, planning, drafting, reporting  - some of which is very 
    important to those of us present, but which has a very short 'shelf-life'
    and is not very useful to those following remotely.

    I was wondering if it would be useful to create a new list which would
    simply be for reports, drafts of statements and final statements. 

    For example, anyone who is monitoring sub-committee, reports from the CS
    bureau meetings, reports from meetings with government delegatations etc.

    I think people participating remotely would miss the 'sense' or 'feel' of 
    the process, but if this was important, they would need to stay subscribed
    to the plenary.

    I would be happy to put some time into this, for example, by liaising with
    monitors of sub-committee, our working group focal points etc, and posting 
    reports to this new list with clear subject lines - and - to post copies of
    reports that have been written to date.

    the list could be called plenary-reports (or something similar)
